themselves Of oil of value in the house.
Exultingly they told their tale of horror,
their painted faces and blood-stained gar
ments looking ghastly in the freight. One
man threw an ornament, torn from the
person of n white woman, to his squaw
who had brought his supper; and another,
with iendish laugh, tossed scalp to.

little pale-face, take that for remem-
brance of your race"
With loathing she crept back TO her wig
wan, and, stopping her ears, tried to keep
out the sound Of their diabolical cries.
Such scenes as this always recalled to her
memory the time when her father and
mother were cruelty murdered, their dwell
ing burned, and she was bsrne away, a
helpless captive, by the hideous savages.
Toward midnight the noise ceased, as
the Indians, weary with carousing, one
after another, fell asleep; and Ruth slipped
out into the forest to keep her appoints
ment with Reuben Hayes. She found him
awaiting her ut the spring; by noon the
next day they had reached the settlement
of Jamestown, where Ruth found home
with Reuben's sister nnl her husband, Mr.
and Mrs. Charles Potter.
Three months have passed; tie autumn
has gone, and snow lies white upon the
ground, and we find Ruth seated alone be-
fore the fire, in her new home. Mr.. and
Mrs. Potter have gone to call on one of
their neighbors. The door opens suddenly,
and Reuben Hayes enters.
As Ruth arises to greet him, he ap-
proaches her and takes her hand in his.
"Ruth," he says. 81 have loved you ever

with the Indians, three months ago; but
have waited TO give ycu time to know me.

Her disengaged hand seeks his. Her
eyes shine clear and deep as she mur-

Al can be your own, your wife, for love
you. I have loved you ever since l saw
you brought to the Indian village, help

And few months after this, there is
wedding at the jamestown settlement. and
Reuben Hayes and Ruth Waldron are
made husband and wife.

WIFE AND HUSBAND.

Women never get full honor for any
thing they do. 1t is always divided
with some man who did nothing. When
Jael, for the deliverance of her country,
slew Sisera. the old chronicler embalms
in the immortal story of the daring
patriot, one Heber, the Kenite-"Jael,
the wife of Heber the Kenite" took a
nail Of the tent and did thus and So,
Now, what under the sun had Heber to
do with it? Why should he be dragged
into this story? He never did any
thing but marry Jael, and while that
may indicate the good taste and iudg-
ment of the man, it doesn't entitle him
to immortality in a patriotic story. If
he must come into the narrative, why
should he not come down to us, as
"Heber the husband of Jsel?" That
would sound something like. However,
we are doing things somewhat better
now, and there are several men in
America who are known only as the
husbands of their wives. In fact, that's
all that some men, like Heber the old,
ever will be remembered for. Brigham

when the journey to New York was less
of little ia,1nt than it is now; when
greenbacks were not popular here.
One gaudy summer morning, just as
the early birds were dropping into

stores, chill sron: their all-night dark
ness, began to feel wasm, as the bank
cashier had spread his ali1ring gold on

it and nobody could touch it except
himself; man, walking in happy and
feverish haste, with wild excitement
beaming all over his face, stepped into
the financial junkshop of well-known

SO give me draft. How much?'
ooh, seeing,,i's you, an old friend, 1

So the banker made out draft on
New York and took the money.
you're going tomorrow, are you?"
"Yes."
would you mind taking little par
eel for me and handing it to my

Certainly. I'll do it with pleasure"

and presently came back with the par
col.
"Just put it in your valise and don't
lose it, will you?"
"Ill take the best of care of it.n
"Thank You. Good-by. Pleasant

BY the recent census Manitoba has

We're found to contain 49, 1862. Thus the
total for population of Manitoba and
the northwest is 157, 900. In 1883 the
Government estimated it at 203, 152; in
1884 at 24s, ,l02. These figures were
lased on returns of the immigration de-
partment. It appears, therefore, that
81, 102 settlers have been lost, to say
nothing of the increase that should
have occurred by birth.
By the census of 1881 Manitoba had
